Links

Our first assignment is to post five links to geography related websites. The first two were chosen by the professor. The last three were my choice.

http://geog310.blogspot.com/ is our class website (Introduction to Digital Cartography). It has our professor's picture and a link to Census 2000 maps showing U.S. population and diversity maps.

http://www.gmu.edu/departments/geog is George Mason's Department of Geography website. It has a link for geography employers.

http://www.geoeye.com/ is the company for which I work. It is listed on the previous link as a geography employer in the private sector. GeoEye is currently hiring Geospatial Analysts in Dulles VA.

http://www.stopmountaintopremoval.org/ is a site dedicated to the stop of mountaintop removal. This is a cause to which I contribute and did a project on in my "Conservation of Natural Resources" class. People should be educated on the toxicity and destructive nature of "clean coal".

http://gos2.geodata.gov/wps/portal/gos is the geodata.gov website for U.S. Maps and data which contains federal, state and local geographic data. This site has a lot of special interest pages for real world geography.
